Death:The Personal and the Universal

Thursday, November 5, 2009: 7pm in Brunnier Art Museum

Death is something no one can escape. It follows life as surely as night follows day, winter follows autumn, or old age follows youth. Confronting the reality of death enables us to bring courage, grace, compassion and creativity into our lives. Join Cindy Gould, associate professor in Art and Design, and Jennifer Margrett, associate professor in Human Development and Family Studies, as they explore different responses to death, both the personal and the universal.



Mind, Material and Borrowed Time
Thursday, November 12, 2009: 7pm in Brunnier Art Museum

Bringing the anatomy of animals together with digital art, this presentation addresses how we borrow from our natural environment to examine, understand, and view the physical world. Between the scientific and artistic perspectives, both presenters will explain how they approach the physical presence of animals in manipulating nature's materials so they can see and show what they want to see, need to see, and create new ways of seeing. Wolfgang Weber works in the field of Veterinary Anatomy in support of the teaching laboratories. Carol Faber teaches within the Art and Design Department with her research emphasis in digital imagery and intuitive ways of working with technologies.
